Too many names of people, residences, etc. This puzzle feels like Jeopardy.

I am not amused. This is NOT Tuesday material.

31 Down: "remote button abbrev." Give me a break. Does the constructor still live in the 20th century?

Never ever have I heard "Okiedokie artichokie" here in the Pacific NW.

I don't like a vulgar term for rear in my puzzle. Keep it civiliized.

Never heard of a pet psychic, but there is a wikipedia entry about it. I guess, only in America.

The "Seattle slew" (clue 56 across) is an exaggeration . Syracuse, NY, receives rain 172 days a year, Seattle only 156 days. As to rain volume, Seattle receives 37 inches a year, but Miami gets 69 inches, New Orleans 63 inches.

I fear David Kahn's puzzles. Add to that, that I was not born in this country and do not follow pop culture - totally out of my wheelhouse.

As a European I cannot understand why some Americans think that HOMINEM is a phonetic hint to HOMONYM. And why it even would be considered so much fun ...

Please no SABRA in a puzzle. It reminds me of the massacre Sabra and Shatila in 1982.

Technically the royal palace of Morroco is in Touarga. Touarga is an enclave of the city of Rabat, and it has a different statute. You might compare it to Vatican city, which is an enclave of Roma. Therefore, the answer to clue 52 down is incorrect.

This was as easy as a Monday puzzle.

I object against clue 5 Down: "White blood cell producer said to be shaped like a coffee bean". In a healthy adult, this organ is not the primary producer of white blood cells; the bone marrow holds that title. It is much more accurate to describe the sought organ as an immune system training camp, storage unit, and filtering station rather than a manufacturing factory.

Moved to the US in 1992, yet this is the first time I see that 440 refers to reefer.

This puzzle is way too easy for a Tuesday. This is after you got Lasik.
